The `obsidian://` URI handler affects the app but no longer activates the app window

What I’m trying to do

The Obsidian URI handlers for obsidian://open? and obsidian://search? previously activated the relevant Obsidian window from a minimized state.

Now these links perform their function within the app—opening and populating the search sidebar or opening a note within the app—but no longer activate the Obsidian window. It changes but remains minimized or behind other application windows.

I do not recall exactly when the change happened.

Things I have tried

  • Verify Obsidian is up-to-date
  • Reviewing other help and bug threads referencing “URI handler”
  • Updating all plugins
  • Deactivating all plugins

Asking for help before assuming this is a bug.
